|
Moved to Britain, because London is not in Europe. | [Sun UK] LONDON TERROR London Bridge shooting – Man shot by police after several injured in knife attack. Terrifying footage from the scene shows armed officers pointing their weapons at a man lying prone on the floor.
Shocked witnesses told The Sun Online the man on the bridge appeared to be wearing a suicide vest.
Witnesses have been evacuated from the scene, with others told to stay inside restaurants and stores.
Video footage shows armed police and members of the public surrounding and grappling with a man who is lying on the ground on the north side of the bridge.
The armed cops order the members of the public to step away from the man before he is shot by one of the firearms officers.
A lorry has been left jacknifed across the bridge, the scene of the 2017 terror attack which killed eight.
One woman said: “I was just walking along the bridge and I heard four or five shots from behind me.
“I just ran. I didn’t even look back. I’ve no idea of it was police or not. I was terrified.”
Journalist Lucy Jones was in Farmer J’s restaurant in London Bridge when armed cops stormed in.
She said: “We were eating lunch when a policeman screamed ‘get on the floor’.
"They locked all the doors and we had to rush to the back of the restaurant near the toilets.
"There were women crying. It was terrifying.
"We heard a gunshot and another officer shouted 'we need to get out' and we all ran away from London Bridge."

London Mayor Sadiq Khan this afternoon paid tribute to the brave emergency services as well as the "breathtaking heroism of members of the public who literally ran towards danger, not knowing what confronted them."
A pack, not a herd.
